Plant netting

I've been talking about this for years, every year after my blueberries are gone. Finally got some.

Looked it up online and it showed my local Fleet Farm had some. Nothing displayed but the staff found one box of four packages. I had no idea how much I might need to I bought them all.

On my first planting of blueberries, the bushes are so tall that I had to use two packages, one for each side. And then cut some off of each piece. I was able to get almost everything covered. The piece I used by the house is just a little short but covers the top so it might be enough. Then there is one bush I planted where it is very sandy and that bush is not even a foot high after five years and has no berries.

Now, will it work?

Yellow squash, rotting.

Finally some yellow squash but every piece was rotting on the end where the flower was. Other than that we have only gotten two zucchini that my wife picked about this size because we were leaving town.
